@@KaiserSoze679 that’s what style is about, wearing a watch that increases in price or making money? Why would you do that to yourself? Lose money as soon as you buy something? Maybe because you don’t buy everything you own to make money and would rather have a watch that you can also use to answer phone calls, texts or pay for things with sometimes. I have even worn a smart watch on my right wrist with a mechanical on my left. If the smart watch battery lasted longer I’d wear one more often as they are a better tool and more accurate time piece than any mechanical watch. I have to admit I don’t feel very sorry that he lost his collection as he only seems to want them because they are expensive and increase in value.
TGV is great! But I fee like he focuses on his production value rather than his horological values.... I find myself skipping through his videos (which he obviously spent a lot of time putting thought and hours in editing) but in the end... I’m here for you to talk about watches. Not here to listen to a fucking plastic toy TREX pop jokes...
New subscriber here that is a long time shark tank fan and newly engaged in the watch industry; you Teddy, are a marvel human. To be able to balance Kevin the way you did with class and to avoid confrontation while maintaining a high esteem and intellect was a pleasure to watch. (Pun intended). You’re a gift to humanity with your personality and candidness; soon after your intelligence in the industry. Keep it up.
I love the fact that Kevin truly cares for and respects the craftsmanship and the relationship between the watch and the wearer. He isn't just a billionaire buying the most expensive piece he can. He wants each piece to mean something and tell a story.
Kevin: hey, look at all these red bands! Teddy: that’s great but watches as investments is a pretty stupid idea, right? Kevin:... but all the bands are RED. Pretty crazy right?
You do know, inside of minutes all of those watches can be rebanded back to as they came out of the box. He's an actor on Shark Tank as well as an investor. No, I don't care for the color, but he's into trademarking himself as a brand on Shark Tank. Of course the difference between being crazy and eccentric is the size of your bank account too.
I didn't know anything about Kevin O'Leary at all before this video, but he speaks beautifully about watches and the hobby. He seems full of passion for each of his pieces instead of just being a rich guy throwing money around. Excellent video.
I've had my Apple stainless watch for 5 yrs now, and still on the original battery. It has a sapphire crystal, has been clumsily smashed into many metal door jambs, and still looks 9 on a 10 scale. 10 different straps & bracelets for it in various materials & colors allow me to stylize with an understated flare. I typically wear a Rolex on my left wrist, and the Apple on my right. Whenever people say anything, which is often, I hold up both arms and say "THIS is a wristwatch, this is an electronic assistant, and if I want to know the time I look left every time." About half the time that starts a conversation about watches, and that's a good thing. At the end of the day, however, they both improve the quality of my life each in different ways, and I've never been afraid to be different. Thanks for the vids Teddy! Sparks in Daytona
Hilarious... Kevin sounds like a little kid talking about baseball cards or his hot wheels or Star Wars collection, just with a slightly more adult and snobbish vocabulary. Kevin seemed super excited to make a new friend and talk toys. I would not have guessed the interview going that way. Very surprising. Very entertaining. Well done Teddy.
I really liked the fact that Kevin seemed genuinely interested in your opinions. Sometimes famous people just like to talk - but you could tell he wanted to hear what you had to say
If someone broke into my house and found my watch collection, they'd probably just take the display case I bought on Amazon, and leave the watches...lol
Robbin I have a few good watches and I thought of putting it in my safety deposit box, but what’s the point. If I can’t wear my watches, why have them.
RickJason No offense but you obviously don't have a big enough collection to worry about this kind of stuff, so it doesn't apply to you. Once you start to hit 10 watches or more, that's when you would have to put most of it in the bank. Then you can simply keep 5 at the house for example, cycle through those, then go to the bank once in a while to switch them out for 5 other ones. This is all relative to the size of someone's collection
@@MatraBatra with that kind of money I'd install a pretty safe safety deposit box at home. So I can keep other stuff there as well. With some fingerprint and voice recognition and call 911 if attempted to be broken. But I guess when you got your collection stolen and you can order all same watches same evening without even noticing.. it doesn't matter.
You have to love Kevin for his sheer boyish enthusiasm on this topic. And of course he is a fellow (and badly afflicted) victim of our disease - Acute Horological Syndrome :-D
Kevin is a victim? Tell that to the various business partners he's had throughout the years including the investors of his software company in the late 90s that all lost their shirts.
@@monkeyballs512 I couldn't agree more with you. I quit watching the Shit Tank because of him. He thinks his shit don't stank but it does. I usually don't judge people like that but: Kevin you are a pompus ass!
Completely agree with teddy's point there, watches as an investment is honestly just a myth collectors like to perpetuate. You really need to spend loads of money before being even considered for one of the more appreciable watches, and even then, if you do decide to sell you can forget any future prospects with that authorised dealer.. in some cases even other dealers if your name spreads as a seller.
could u explain me why people that want to sell the high level watches are considered bad guys by dealers? i am new here and always read these things, but cant understand why trading watches is seen as somenthing bad
@@DanielSantMont just as how every company wants their stockholders to be long term holders not quick sellers. Think of it like this, if everyone is trying to make a quick buck and sell, the value of the watch is going to fall because no one is giving it long term value. Brands want loyalty from buyers and hate people wanting to make a quick turnover.
@@DanielSantMont Several reasons: Because the company only wants “the right people” to be seen wearing their watches (to control their image) They don’t want people to buy their watches for the sole purpose of flipping them(to preserve their value) They want to ensure *actual* collectors are the people receiving the watches They don’t want thousands of speculators waiting in line to buy watches
@@DanielSantMont A lot of companies actually do this. Ferrari is probably the most famous for it. Once you’re ‘chosen’ to receive an allocation for a rare model(like a la ferrari) you have to sign a contract stating you won’t sell the car for the first 2 years of ownership(to avoid flippers and for the reasons I mentioned in the last post). Celebrities get in trouble if they break the contract and are usually blacklisted. John Cena got in trouble for selling his Ford GT a few months after he bought it (for about double what he paid for it).
Teddy, I am so proud of you. You showed what a knowledgeable, articulate ,young watch expert you are.To stand there with a Billionaire and display your knowledge,and state your opinion,was fantastic. I consider Kevin somewhat of a watch expert himself. The two of you had a very interesting and respectful debate on some slight differences of opinion while entertaining us all. You have taken a large leap into manhood. Well done ,my friend.
Congratulations Teddy, I follow you from that “feminine wrist” video, and now you’ve become a man in the watch industry. Follow your dreams man! I’m a subscriber 💪👍
For most of us it would be like being in a firing squad and living to tell the tale twice. But for Kevin. It’s like a paper cut followed by another paper cut.... his wallet isn’t feeling the hit like “all of us”. It’s just another check he needs to write lol
Teddy, you're really killing it right now. Loving all these great interviews. Keep up the great work bud, cause the watch community is grateful for all the great content.
Hey Ted, to be honest. This is one of the best, if not, the best, watch interview I've ever watched. Its a real discussion, full of agreement and disagreement from two persons who are knowledgeable about watches, the business, and its industry, rather than just nodding at each every opinion. Good stuf man! Subscribing
I have a friend that got 120 thousand dollars worth of watches stolen from his house, since then he doesn't buy expensive pieces. I can't even imagine how much money Kevin lost, I don't know if I'd still buy luxury watches if I were to get my collection wiped out twice..... Kudos to both of you, great content!!
I never liked watches till I start working at movado,I’m 18 and now in days people don’t really appreciate how unique watches are and now I found ur RUclips Chanel and vids like this make me get more into the watch world,it’s crazy
Definitely number 1 in the watch youtube community, you are making great progress. Looking at all of this makes me miss your first intro 🤣 At that time I thought I thought this was a fashion channel, Im glad I stayed all the way through. Congrats!
I totally understand where Teddy is coming from with respect to watches not necessarily being a great investment vehicle for everyone. What we are seeing here is differences in perspective between an industry professional and a pure collector. Jewelry and watch industry professionals, if they are being honest, will rarely recommend these products as investment vehicles. There are for sure better ways to allocate capital.
Hi Teddy. I must admit I haven’t been a fan of your videos so far. Then I have seen the interview and both shopping videos with Kevin O’Leary. And the interview with Omega’s CEO. All in the past days, and I am really impressed. More than that. Especially the videos with Kevin have been exceptionally fantastic, I think not only me but many enthusiastic watch collectors, specially those who are truly interested in deeper knowledge of watches could spend hours watching you guys talk about watches. The questions you ask are really well thought and not necessarily the ones every other “watch guy” on RUclips is asking. Kevin is also a very exceptional personality and watch collector. And I say that having seen many other guys talking watches in somebody else’s RUclips channel. Not even near the way you talk watches. Very well done.
Man you guys are so great together, I can't get enough of these videos, both of you look so good together, your personalities mesh quite well, you're both so knowledgeable, I've been BINGE WATCHING THESE VIDEOS and I can't get enough.... Both of you have great taste in timepieces, you guys both seem to have developed a genuine friendship, and let's face it, we've got two powerhouses from two different generations, which is what the world needs MUCH MORE OF.... And I don't mean this in a bad way AT ALL. Kevin isn't "old" and Teddy isn't a "kid" but there is some distance between the two of your ages, and these videos are a FANTASTIC EXAMPLE of how beneficial a friendship is with a person outside of your age group. One of my longest friends is over a decade older than me, and I could not have possibly been more blessed. I think that's part of why I appreciate these videos so much... you guys, I mean, its the internet, its "tv" but you guys seem to GENUINELY enjoy each other's company, and man, I can't get enough of that..... IF ONLY more people would seek out a solid, genuine friendship like this, the world would absolutely be a better place.
I love watches and fountain pens which will quite often also lead to interesting conversations when in business meetings. The pens fire up conversations more often than my watches do. I have a few nice pieces of both but can’t imagine collecting at the level of Kevin. I love his passion when talking about his collection and what fires him up.
Opposite to these guys, I love it when he said the term collection in French. It shows his passion. In life, you will go far when you truly believe in and have passion for something. This is a man of class.
It's so true to say it is very hard to 'monetize' your watch collection. I have a couple of steel Rolex's I bought as investments but, despite the prices you see online, the platforms take such a huge % that negates the profit of someone choosing to buy from me. Watch dealers look for margins around 45-55% (in my experience) and unless you are buying the sort of watches Kevin talks about - you ain't making any money on 10k watches.
Wondering why I was watching a video about watches. Then I realized this is a refreshing video without anything political or controversial. Teddy’s videos are just wholesome.
I get that watch "sickness" because is the chase of timeless pieces, the relationships that you build, etc. Great video, better than many movies right now
That alone shows he has no idea about the watches specs and has no real appreciation for what they are beyond their value. This guy is a truly grotesque watch collector(or whatever pretentious way he wants to say it)
Pretty good call when he said keeping certain ADs on as boutique only build-outs with AP owning 51%. He cited London Jewelers as an example. I just attended London's boutique opening, registered my name with them and bought a Royal Oak Chrono. Sales told me AP required it and owned 51% of it and that to continue selling AP, the AD would need to take a 49% risk in the venture to move forward. Lucky guess or did O'Leary know in advance?
Hodinkee: lets bring John Mayer back for Talking Watches Teddy: imma bout to end this channels career By far, an interesting video that I wish was longer!
I think what's funny about this video, after going back to watch it again, is how you went in thinking you were going to have to fight Kevin, but both of you ended up having a lot more in common than you thought to the point you guys are doing videos together all the time. I can't believe how well it turned out!
Kevin wasn't "speculating" about London Jewelers keeping their AP AD status by having a standalone AP boutique inside London Jewelers. He already knew that was the plan....which it is
Chances are, he probably had some insider information. But he is someone well-versed in business and heavily invested in the watch industry. I wouldn't be surprised if he knew that was going to be the case due to the "exclusivity" many brands want to create.
Congrats teddy, if you have time please do a video about watches under 2k but over 40 mm. I also love your vintage watch videos but they are all so small that I cant wear them with a bigger wrist.
Teddy, this is by far the most enjoyable video I have watched (about watches) in the last 3 or 4 months (I follow you and some 6 or 7 other watch enthusiasts with youtube channels). Really great work interviewing Kevin O'Leary. This video should have triple the views it has today. Just great work!!! Thanks :)
"If you put an apple watch on your wrist you're probably going to burn in hell" - Kevin O' Leary I will share this quote with all my Apple Watch wearing friends :)
Anders from Finland if you are fortunate enough to be offered the opportunity to buy a hulk and you out a red band on it, you’ll be right next to them in hell
If billionaires had souls they'd give so much stock to employees that they'd no longer be billionaires. Really tho anybody who puts a red strap on a hulk is a psychopath.
I absolutely love RubberB and thank Mr. Wonderful for turning me on to them. As I write this comment, I have a Explorer II that has been PVD and has an orange RubberB band with the original deployment clasp on it. The watch is absolutely stunning and the integration of the band and case is so perfect that people have mistook the band as original.
Teddy, I was so impressed with how you conducted this conversation. You were an excellent host and really did a fine job with Kevin and the topic as a whole. Congratulations! I think you have a future in this!
TGV was a business move based on his subscribers alone. His viewers are into budget watches like Seiko 5 and metal G Shocks. His audience will never be what Watchbox is looking for. Fail.
Getting your entire collection swiped twice and not killing yourself is more impressive than any of the watches lmao

One of the most interesting in depth watch conversations I've ever heard. Gotta love the passion.
absolutely. I never thought to change watches throughout the day. It is like a new world!
There's better content out there
I honest suspect that Teddy disagrees with Kevin's intention of collecting watches - increase in value, starting conversations and saying collectione
...and those are only the most pretentious things he showed in this video. Just get him talking about politics and see how popular he gets then.

What we are seeing here is differences in perspective between an industry professional and a pure collector. Jewelry and watch industry professionals, if they are being honest, will rarely recommend these products as investment vehicles. There are for sure better ways to allocate capital.
Having a red band on every single watch is bizarre. That's his taste and thats fine but nothing stylish about it.
Kevin is a Piru Blood from Compton
its because of shark tank, they make him wear one color band.
Agreed. It's an 8 year olds approach to 'style' 😂
I think it looks sweet, personally.
Style is way more subjective than you’re making it out to be.
Great discussion. Really thought Kevin would go AP over Rolex but not surprised he picked profits over brand appreciation.
Love hearing Kevin's passion in discussing watches. I don't necessarily agree with all of his style points, but it is undeniably unique and an image.
Fascinating interview. You handled it very well, Kevin is knowledgeable and funny.
"Watches need a safe", from the guy who got his entire collection stolen twice
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me and I buy a safe 😏
A safe and an AK to guard the safe 😉🤫🤷🏽♂️
Looks so different to the older videos, with a real sense of evolution, but don't get me wrong I like all your videos since I found them
Hi Teddy. I must admit I haven’t been a fan of your videos so far. Then I have seen the interview and both shopping videos with Kevin O’Leary. And the interview with Omega’s CEO. All in the past days, and I am really impressed. More than that. Especially the videos with Kevin have been exceptionally fantastic, I think not only me but many enthusiastic watch collectors, specially those who are truly interested in deeper knowledge of watches could spend hours watching you guys talk about watches. The questions you ask are really well thought and not necessarily the ones every other “watch guy” on RUclips is asking. Kevin is also a very exceptional personality and watch collector. And I say that having seen many other guys talking watches in somebody else’s RUclips channel. Not even near the way you talk watches.
Very well done.
Man you guys are so great together, I can't get enough of these videos, both of you look so good together, your personalities mesh quite well, you're both so knowledgeable, I've been BINGE WATCHING THESE VIDEOS and I can't get enough.... Both of you have great taste in timepieces, you guys both seem to have developed a genuine friendship, and let's face it, we've got two powerhouses from two different generations, which is what the world needs MUCH MORE OF.... And I don't mean this in a bad way AT ALL. Kevin isn't "old" and Teddy isn't a "kid" but there is some distance between the two of your ages, and these videos are a FANTASTIC EXAMPLE of how beneficial a friendship is with a person outside of your age group. One of my longest friends is over a decade older than me, and I could not have possibly been more blessed. I think that's part of why I appreciate these videos so much... you guys, I mean, its the internet, its "tv" but you guys seem to GENUINELY enjoy each other's company, and man, I can't get enough of that..... IF ONLY more people would seek out a solid, genuine friendship like this, the world would absolutely be a better place.
Teddy is a heavyweight now. Learned a ton from this. Big future ahead Teddy!
I've never cared much for Kevin, but I do luv his passion & enthusiasm for watches.
Well done Teddy!
Wonderful is a salesman . He make things look better than they are actually.
Kevin is like the ‘Dad’ of the business world. Love listening to him.
I love watches and fountain pens which will quite often also lead to interesting conversations when in business meetings. The pens fire up conversations more often than my watches do. I have a few nice pieces of both but can’t imagine collecting at the level of Kevin. I love his passion when talking about his collection and what fires him up.
I remember when Teddy had 30 Subscribers, a long way ever since. Great investor providing excellent content.
I'm surprised Kevin doesn't have a MVMT piece in his Collectioné
Or a top tier Vincero
Look,this is how I see it ok,he clearly doesn't know much about watches but it seems like he likes it a lot ,i see him as producer michael.
Or a Casio
@@ivan6navi hey, my Casio calculator watch still hits hard.
23 jewel movement only! Glass back. Seiko love it.
Opposite to these guys, I love it when he said the term collection in French. It shows his passion. In life, you will go far when you truly believe in and have passion for something. This is a man of class.
It's so true to say it is very hard to 'monetize' your watch collection. I have a couple of steel Rolex's I bought as investments but, despite the prices you see online, the platforms take such a huge % that negates the profit of someone choosing to buy from me.
Watch dealers look for margins around 45-55% (in my experience) and unless you are buying the sort of watches Kevin talks about - you ain't making any money on 10k watches.
Wondering why I was watching a video about watches. Then I realized this is a refreshing video without anything political or controversial. Teddy’s videos are just wholesome.
I get that watch "sickness" because is the chase of timeless pieces, the relationships that you build, etc. Great video, better than many movies right now
"YeahYeahTheHeliumReleaseValveYupYupYupMhm!" 18:00
Erik Mello 😂😂😂😂😂
🤣
nitrogen release valve
Nitrogen release valve... in water
😂😂😂😂😂😂 This guy
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The red alligator on that AP was gorgeous in my opinion. Absolutely stunning piece.
Teddy knows his watches. He is so articulate knowledgeable appealing!
The nitrogen release valve LMFAO
Baba Ganoush it’s hydrogen right? lol
@@tm55555 Usually Helium but also Hydrogen. Hydrox en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrox_(breathing_gas)
Maybe in another planet...
Scrolled all the way here to see if someone caught it... Teddy was quick to correct it though.... the way he did it LMFAO
That alone shows he has no idea about the watches specs and has no real appreciation for what they are beyond their value. This guy is a truly grotesque watch collector(or whatever pretentious way he wants to say it)
I love Kevin's passion for his collection, the industry, and collecting. Great interview.
I have no idea how you got Mr. Wondeful to do an interview with you. I have been watching the Shark Tank show on CNBC for years.
Teddy this was such a good conversation about the industry. Have you considered doing an update with Kevin?
Mr. Wonderful definition of style is spot on. It about individuality without being over the top (not begging for attention).
Pretty good call when he said keeping certain ADs on as boutique only build-outs with AP owning 51%. He cited London Jewelers as an example. I just attended London's boutique opening, registered my name with them and bought a Royal Oak Chrono. Sales told me AP required it and owned 51% of it and that to continue selling AP, the AD would need to take a 49% risk in the venture to move forward. Lucky guess or did O'Leary know in advance?
Very interesting! I am sure he got some insight being a high volume buyer
The scariest shark has entered our tank here on Teddy's channel 😂
Andrewshadowy Lol we have dragons den up in Canada too eh 🇨🇦
Hodinkee: lets bring John Mayer back for Talking Watches
Teddy: imma bout to end this channels career
By far, an interesting video that I wish was longer!
I think what's funny about this video, after going back to watch it again, is how you went in thinking you were going to have to fight Kevin, but both of you ended up having a lot more in common than you thought to the point you guys are doing videos together all the time. I can't believe how well it turned out!
That rounded AP with the red alligator band is wonderful. I love it
Kevin wasn't "speculating" about London Jewelers keeping their AP AD status by having a standalone AP boutique inside London Jewelers. He already knew that was the plan....which it is
Chances are, he probably had some insider information. But he is someone well-versed in business and heavily invested in the watch industry. I wouldn't be surprised if he knew that was going to be the case due to the "exclusivity" many brands want to create.
Congrats teddy, if you have time please do a video about watches under 2k but over 40 mm. I also love your vintage watch videos but they are all so small that I cant wear them with a bigger wrist.
I haven’t done much for watches for a larger wrist so that could be fun!
WatchMe Unboxing yeah I a big fan of the Oris sixty five blue dial cream markers. I also like the Longines legend diver in that price range.
Definitely, my dream watch is the 45.6 mm omega seamaster. Just need to find £7500.
I’m surprised Mr. Wonderful hasn’t hear of safety deposit boxes! Good video Teddy!
I heard someone say that if they go missing from a safety deposit box, they are not insured. Still safer then having them at home
Thanks for being so generous with your time, Mr. O'Leary. -I enjoyed that.
Just spent 42mins and 57secs of my day, love it!
Teddy, this is by far the most enjoyable video I have watched (about watches) in the last 3 or 4 months (I follow you and some 6 or 7 other watch enthusiasts with youtube channels). Really great work interviewing Kevin O'Leary. This video should have triple the views it has today. Just great work!!! Thanks :)
"If you put an apple watch on your wrist you're probably going to burn in hell"
- Kevin O' Leary
I will share this quote with all my Apple Watch wearing friends :)
Anders from Finland if you are fortunate enough to be offered the opportunity to buy a hulk and you out a red band on it, you’ll be right next to them in hell
Jbramson12 haha! That is also true.
I so agree. If James Bond ever wore one, the franchise is over.
The Rolex Daytona looks absolutely amazing... I’m so getting one
*looks up base model price*
fuck
Good luck at that
40 mm is tiny in my view, that’s why I wouldn’t buy a Rolex. A 45.6mm omega seamaster ,now that’s more like it ,at half the price.!!
Teddy got my subscription simply because he knows his stuff.
That AP is out of this world .. haven't seen anything so beautiful in so long
I dunno, I think Kevin talking about people having “no souls” is a little ironic.
If billionaires had souls they'd give so much stock to employees that they'd no longer be billionaires. Really tho anybody who puts a red strap on a hulk is a psychopath.
I absolutely love RubberB and thank Mr. Wonderful for turning me on to them. As I write this comment, I have a Explorer II that has been PVD and has an orange RubberB band with the original deployment clasp on it. The watch is absolutely stunning and the integration of the band and case is so perfect that people have mistook the band as original.
Teddy, I was so impressed with how you conducted this conversation. You were an excellent host and really did a fine job with Kevin and the topic as a whole. Congratulations! I think you have a future in this!
40 minutes felt like 10. Really intriguing and entertaining video!
I agree 100% with everything Kevin said and especially his comments on the Apple Watch.
This teddy is slowly building a powerful watch channel. TGV had better watch out. I’m very impressed Teddy.
Teddy is way better than TGV any day of the week!
@@Ferien7 I think both Teddy and TGV can appreciate a watch at any price point, unlike Kevin here who would scoff at a watch under 1k
Very polite Mr Teddy, the way you corrected his "nitrogen relase valve" comment :) Just state the correct answer and move on...
Watchbox should have recruited Teddy. He is crushing the RUclips watchgame 😎😎😎😎
I like my independence haha.
@Kwenz Landah aka a rodent
TGV was a business move based on his subscribers alone. His viewers are into budget watches like Seiko 5 and metal G Shocks. His audience will never be what Watchbox is looking for. Fail.
@@iclogtoilets3483 time proved your comment right.
The best watch talk I’ve ever seen ..... I’m crazy about watches ,feels good to see I’m not alone 😊
Great collection. I really enjoyed the video. His comments on Smart Watches are spot on. Thanx
